TY Work Portfolio 4

Oli Smith's version of 'My First Home' starts :"My first home was beautiful. I was only eight months old and I had just moved from Australia. My parents borrowed a bit of money and we settled down in our big house on the top of a hill overlooking the beautiful French village of Montelimar. The town is known for its manufacture of nougat, a French sweet, so as you drove into the village that lovely sweet smell would hit you."

One of the narrative tasks in the Work Portfolio is to tell a story from two different perspectives. Here is Rosemary Wentges's piece. Another popular title is 'My First Love' - rarely anything conventionally romantic, and an example is Rebecca Roe's memory here.
